How are we supposed to pull files when working with branches ? #99

Hello,
We are managing a large Android project with multiple feature branches running in parallel. We are using the modern smartling-cli and have hit a point of friction regarding the "intended" workflow for retrieving translations in a branched environment.

We use the following command to push strings from our feature branches:

smartling-cli files push "path/to/strings.xml" \
  --type android \
  --job "Feature-Name" \
  --branch "@auto" \
  --authorize

This works perfectly. The @auto flag correctly prefixes the File URI in the Smartling dashboard with our Git branch name (e.g., feature-login/path/to/strings.xml), preventing collisions between developers.

When it comes time to pull those translations back into the specific feature branch, there is no corresponding --branch "@auto" flag for the pull command.

What is the recommended "Golden Path" for pulling translations pushed with --branch?

Thanks
